Product Name:

Human Cytokine Array Q1

Catalog Number:

QAH-CYT-1-1

My work involves studying breast cancer cell line metastasis to lung tissues, and this product allowed me to study a wide variety of cytokines involved in that biological process. It was affordable, easy to use, reliable, and all I needed were cell supernatants to be able to identify and quantify changes in cytokine secretion across several time points.

Summary

The Good

Reliable, easy to set up and use, lots of data generated, affordable

The Bad

Lots of wash steps, need to be careful not to scratch the glass slide array

The Bottom Line

This is a very useful, affordable, and easy to use array that provides a ton of data and allows you to simultaneously identify and quantify 20 different and biologically important cytokines, would buy again!
